On an outdoor 400 metresrunning track, the 100m is run on the home straight, with the start usually being set on an extension to make it a straight-line race. Runners begin in the starting blocks and the race begins when an official fires the starter's pistol. Sprinters typically reach top speed after somewhere between 50–60m. Their speed then slows towards the finish line.

The 10-second barrier has historically been a barometer of fast men's performances, while the best female sprinters take eleven seconds or less to complete the race. The current men's world record is 9.58seconds, set by Jamaica's Usain Bolt in 2009, while the women's world record of 10.49seconds set by American Florence Griffith-Joyner in 1988 remains unbroken.
